Dr Chantell Witten, a registered dietitian and spokesperson for Association for Dietetics in South Africa , points out that moms can face significant roadblocks to breastfeeding their babies even when this delicate process went well for them after the birth of their baby. “The need to earn and return to work, puts pressure on moms to give up on breastfeeding.
